    Yet again, telling the fans what to do.
    I like the use of the wording "current guidelines"
    Of course under CURRENT guidlines the authorities can be dicks, but under what will become the guidelines come Sunday is a different ball game.

    Sneaky way to try and put fear in to the support and get us to shut up again.

    * them, everyone go, you'll be fine. Just stick to the stuff the Trust has been saying, keep a mask on, keep distanced, make your voice heard.

    ‘They don’t like it upem !’

    Using covid to try and stop a legitimate demonstration because they can’t handle the expression of feelings.

    Bunch of manipulative shitehawking * the lot of them.

    As is always the case, the Club is, of course, happy to engage with supporters and supporter groups.

    Lies lies lies.

    They won't even allow the fans banners up on the fences so how is that listening or engaging.

    * them, then Sack them, then * them again

    I just wonder if the bit below is a hint that the cub might be penalised by the SPL for not 'controlling fans'? Docked points? I could be a million miles off, but worth bearing in mind.

    The Club is also duty-bound to point out that it has received legal and safety advice indicating that, if strict social distancing and applicable Scottish Guidance are not implemented, any such gathering would breach current legislation – something the Club would wish all supporters to be aware of.

    Fair enough. I'll keep caring until the 10 is either out of our own hands or mathematically impossible though.

    it is the "current legislation" for me, like they are ignoring that the tiers are changing tomorrow, so the current one means * all (unless it stays as it was of course, which I am led to believe is not the case).

    They also seem to fail to grasp what the Trust has organised and is saying, social distanced, stick to the rules, wear a mask etc.

    It is simply them trying to come out as the billy big baws in this.

    I would have thought it obvious that being docked points would make the 10 even more difficult?

    Anyway, * the Board indeed, but I'd rather the fans didn't get themselves embroiled in any activities that could compromise the 10. Lets not give the Board any reasons to put any blame on us for lost points!

    As I said, i could be reading more into it than is actually there, but I trust the SPL even less than I trust our Board - if they can find a way to * us over then they will.

    Won’t be docked points for a planned protest outside the park. Would of been done already after the first one.

    Great game tonight, but I hope the support aren't short sighted here.

    This movement needs to keep building and we need this board to *.

    Even if we suddenly click and the manager does the right thjng with this squad, it changes northing of the short comings of the board and their utter disgrace in treating fans and blind faith in sticking by Lennon for far longer than should have been.

    The manager stumbling in to a team selection, even if he manages to be brave enough to keep at it, does not either excuse how Lennon's been this season either.

    Board out, manager change, all stands just as strong as it did 5 hours ago

    If there are concerns about stadium protests then why not move them to Lawwells house ;-)

    And the board don't seem that concerned about points dropped this season so its a bit late to worry about docked points.. other clubs are already taking care of that.

    If the Board have genuine safety concerns about the upcoming protest they could prevent it by having a Zoom Meeting open to all fans with all Board members on it

    We all know that won't happen because they don't care about the health risk.. only the risk to their own cushy jobs

    That would turn into a disaster to be fair :67:

    You'd have guys singing "ooh ah up the Ra" and others doing the air guitar with their bawsack

    The SPL would have no grounds to punish Celtic as a club of fans turned up at a game where no fans are allowed in the stadium.

    SPL can't dock them points or punish them in any way as the protesters would be outside the ground. It's up to the police to do their job.
